Anyone with Humana Insurance?

Has anyone who has Humana insurance, had the surgery, or is scheduled to have the surgery? If so, what did they require of you in order to get it? Thanks!

I have humana. I just had revision from lap band to sleeve on 11/27. Humana paid for the lap band in 2005 and then denied revision and then reversed part of their decision after an appeal. I had to pay for the removal of the band and Humana paid for the sleeve..... At least that's what the prior authorization said but I haven't received a bill yet.

I do. However, I work for a hospital so we have out own brand of Humana insurance( huge hospital actually we own 8 total). I had to have my surgery done through the hospital I work for in order to have it done. They were pretty easy to work with, I didn't have a waiting period etc...it was just having a specific BMI and having comorbidities. The testing was at my surgeon's request.They actually have a bariatrics program through Humana. I contacted them and they sent me info.
